Unless you have a modded Xbox then it wont play mp3's. You'll have to burn an actual cd then rip it the xbox's hard drive.

Convert your MP3's to wav format first, then burn them as an audio CD.

With new Cd burning apps you dont need to convert MP3s to Wavs anymore you dinosaur.... :D.

I recommend the latest Nero if you want a good app.

Just make an audio CD like you normally would. But the xbox will only read a CDR-w not a CDR

Actually, you still need to to the conversion, otherwise it would never get converted. The newer programs just do it on the fly :eek:

I just explained it the way I did so the guy would learn a little something. You know...give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day..show a man how to fish and all that jazz :D

If im making a new Mix Audio CD.
I just make a folder on my desktop. Than I search my mp3 folder for whatever songs I want, than copy all those songs to the folder I made. Than bring up that folder in nero and drag them over. You'll figure it out, its so simple.
